Stapp isn't begging you to believe what he's saying, or to read/listen to articles/interviews, he's not even asking you to buy his music or attend his shows. He's not said he was better than you, or that he was the best thing happening since Jesus either. Dudes just a freakin man that isn't shoving himself at you or anybody else.

I agree. Stapp doesn't owe anyone anything. Some people seem to have this belief that musicians, sportsman, actors etc owe them something because we buy their CD's, watch them perform and see their movies, thus giving them financial freedom and fame.

I see it this way. For the price of a CD, a ticket or cinema admission we get an emotional reward - how many people live for 'their' team, band etc. In return, that person gets a financial reward.

What's more important, happiness or money?

Take Care
